How can we persuade the SW admin to forbid members to be rude to each other?

They don't seem to do much about it when we report trolls for being abusive. What else are we supposed to do?

Wow, am I reading these comments right? Toughen up? Grow thicker skin? Load of crap. Look, there is no excuse for cyber bullying, plain and simple. Just because "it happens on the internet" doesn't make it okay, and if blocking doesn't help then something else needs to be done. I can't believe some of these comments on this post.

@latinbutterfly It's a free site. Do tell, how would you go about this "something" that needs to be done.

Have any reasonable ideas?

And seriously, on a site like this, cyber-bullying is SO easy to ignore. It truly is.

Please provide an example of where people are incapable of protecting themselves.

@JoeyFoxx Okay, it's a free site? So what? Just because cyber bullying is easy to ignore means it shouldn't be dealt with by the people in charge? It should just keep going on and on and on? What kind of crap is that?

Do you have any clue about the mechanics of managing an online site?

Please tell us your reasonable ideas on how to accomplish what you are seeking.

@JoeyFoxx Okay, well since you apparently think that cyber bullying is okay, you must be one yourself. I guess I'll just have no respect for you, then. Simple as that.

At no point did I say or imply that I endorse bullying.

This merely demonstrates that you thrive on angst, which is why trolls likely enjoy getting your goat.

I’m done here.

@JoeyFoxx What the heck are you even talking about? I don't even think you understand what you're saying 🤭.
